About
I'm currently a junior at the University of West Florida (UWF), where I'm working towards a Bachelor's degree in Management with a Human Resources certification. Prior to UWF, I proudly graduated with distinction from Casper College. During my time there, I earned associates degrees in both Business Administration and Economics, all while maintaining a 4.0 GPA.
My college journey has been enriched by my participation in various activities. I dedicated two years to being a student athlete, playing volleyball at Casper College. This experience not only honed my time management skills but also taught me the value of teamwork and discipline.
At UWF, I've continued to be actively engaged. I hold the position of Vice-President within the UWF chapter of the National Society of Leadership and Success (NSLS). This role has allowed me to develop my leadership abilities and contribute to the growth of our chapter. Additionally, I'm a proud member of the Executive Board for the Brazilian Student Association (BRASA), where I've had the opportunity to connect with others who share my cultural interests and give back to the community.

My aspirations extend to pursuing a Master's degree, and I have a particular interest in renowned institutions such as NYU, Columbia, Babson, and the University of Florida.
